Is Jan Lokpal Bill just another media hype?


News channels can show one hour special programme based on daily soap, but not a single programme based on Army personals and Police personals, who are dying on the line of duty for our country and for sovereignty of our country. There is two or more casualty in a week and news channels don’t cover all of them. What about other social activists who are fighting from years for social problems like people living below poverty line, farmers problems etc because it is not high profile case like Jan Lokpal Bill. Jan Lokpal Bill of civil society,( India against Corruption) is a high profile case and news channels are there to support and also for Television Rating Points (TRP is the criterion that indicates the popularity of a channel or programme and this data is very useful for the advertisers).
                               News channels are a cooperate house which are ran by cooperate people and can easily manipulate people minds. What about other sensitive issue which India is facing?
